You can't be serious.  I find that the difficulty in contributing a

out which email address to send it to.


Indeed, working simultaneously on two different projects is difficult.  
I usually work for a while on one, and then 'cd', physically and 
psychically, to the other.  Then switch back.  Sort of like the 
scheduler on a uniprocessor machine.


We have a large number of such stupid, fanatic, desperate developers in 
the qemu and kvm communities.


By "serious developer" I mean

  - someone who is interested in contributing, not in getting their name 
into the kernel commits list
  - someone who is willing to read the wiki page and find out where the 
repository and mailing list for a project is
  - someone who will spend enough time on the project so that the time 
to clone two repositories will not be a factor in their contributions
  - someone who will work on the uncool stuff like fixing bugs and 
providing interfaces to other tools


Let's wait and see then.  If the tools/perf/ experience has really good 
results, we can reconsider this at a later date.
